Decisione estratta
The constitutional provision was not yet in force because its implementation required a federal statute that had not yet been enacted.
Motivazione estratta
Under the transitional provisions, constitutional articles whose execution is left to federal legislation apply only after the relevant laws are passed; Art. 46 belongs to that category.
